UPDATE: Western Sizzlin in Ooltewah closing after employee recently diagnosed with Hep A – WRCBtv.com

To those loyal customers we have proudly served over the past 7 plus years, we thank you for your patronage and regret not being able to continue to serve you. To the Ooltewah community we apologize that you may have been exposed to hepatitis A virus while dining here from March 10-20, 2019 and for any panic, concerns and disruptions. We have always maintained a clean and affordable family-owned family owned and operated family restaurant for the community, which can be backed up by our always maintaining Health Department Inspection Scores in the 90's. The hepatitis A virus outbreak in our region is partial to no one and can be caught by anyone anywhere. We encourage everyone to venture out in public places to obtain a free vaccine from the local Health Department. We also encourage everyone to do their homework on the virus. The (CDC) Centers for Disease Control website offers great information. If you've got it or you've had it knowingly or unknowingly, you will not get it again. Unfortunately, as we had a worker who was diagnosed with the virus, our customer patronage has since discontinued unsteadable business operations in this location.
